Merges on the Askr trio will it be possible?

I gave up on the Idea on the askr trio having something similar to merges.
What I still have hope though are these:
1.OP weapon refinement(since they don't have merges they need OP weapons to compete with other units..... well maybe not so OP but enough to mkae them viable again)
2.Re-class(It's kinda stupid but It's one of the ideas that almost everyone has)

A "new power" is a good idea but It might one of those "good on paper but bad in practice" so IS gotta make up something good.(and it might break the game..... maybe)

Merges would be great but I don't know if they'll do it. What I don't understand is why they haven't given them forge-able weapon upgrades yet. We have Fjorm and Legendary Ike as free units now, how are Sharena and Alfonse supposed to compete with those two???

The only option IS can do is powerful weapon refinements. The Askr trio as of right now are outclassed but still viable, just that what everyone loves to say "better options" is what most would tend to lean towards due to either lack of investment towards them which means they outright are shit when they can actually pull their own weight or they just have, like I said; better options.

It would be nice if they had either weapon refinements, flat BST boosts or unique summoner support that would effectively give them the same benefits as merging, or just simply give them copies periodically through quests. As of the moment, their weapons and BST distributions are too bland/mediocre to make good use out of other than guaranteed arena bonus.

Weapon refinements is the way forward I think. I'd like to see Anna get Escape Route 3, maybe even a 75% HP limit like Lyn's Brash Assault, and Desperation on her axe. It may seem a bit much but Lyn proves they're fine with it. Alf could get Death Blow 3 and perhaps a Atk/Def Bond. Sharena would have to stick with her debuffing game, perhaps a Threaten Spectrum reducing all stats.
